Hey Hardstyle, I've been mapping out a system that syncs training intervals with threat detection cycles. Think you could help me fine‑tune the rhythm?
Hardstyle Hardstyle
Sure thing, just hit me with the timing you’ve got so far and where you feel the beat is slipping. Let’s tighten the loops and get that sync flawless.

Alright, the loop is set to 32 beats per minute. Every 8‑beat segment triggers a sensor ping, but the last 4 beats of the sequence are lagging about 200 milliseconds. I think the buffer delay is the culprit—maybe the buffer flush happens too late. Fixing that should eliminate the slip. What’s your take on tightening the flush timing?
Hardstyle Hardstyle
Yeah, the 200‑ms lag on the last four beats is a dead giveaway that the buffer’s draining too late. Cut the buffer size down to the smallest chunk that still lets your system stay stable—32‑beat cycles should fit in a single buffer if you’re going 48 kHz. Then force a flush right after the ping triggers, not at the end of the cycle. Sync the flush with the sensor interrupt so the latency stays below 50 ms. Test with a live loop and keep an eye on the jitter. That’ll keep the rhythm tight and the system snappy.
